It seems to go without saying that it was another stunning day. If summers were always like this there would be no need to travel abroad. Lovely and warm (high 20s or low 30s) and not a cloud in the sky. A slight breeze kept it comfortable.
The Silver Vixen had an appointment in Chichester so we both went out at about the same time. The Gorse Fox headed across to Ford for the football. It was quite lopsided today, and not in his favour. Though our yellow-bibs took a 2 goal lead we were soon overhauled and it was 6-3 against us by half time. Our goalie had to go off with a sore back, so we had a stand-in. In the second half the rout continued and the game finished 11-6. The Gorse Fox did manage to score 2 goals but generally couldn't have hit a barn door today.
We settled down this afternoon to watch the World Cup final. It's always so much easier to watch a game like this when you have no emotional investment in either team. As a neutral, the Gorse Fox would say that Croatia were the better team and were seriously disadvantaged by some dreadful refereeing decisions. In the end the France team won.
